HotShotTrucking.com is fully equipped to handle the unpredictable nature of expedited freight. We understand that in a bustling city like St. Louis, disruptions can happen at any moment, whether from weather conditions, road closures, or equipment failures.

That’s why we’ve developed an efficient, flexible system to swiftly adapt to any changes. Our fleet is supported by advanced tracking technology, allowing us to reroute shipments in real time and keep you informed every step of the way. Whether you’re shipping critical parts for production or time-sensitive goods, HotShotTrucking.com ensures your shipments stay on track, no matter the challenge, helping businesses in St. Louis and surrounding areas stay competitive and meet their deadlines.

Single Point of Contact (SPOC)

At HotShotTrucking.com, we prioritize clear and consistent communication with both our drivers and clients in St. Louis, Missouri, ensuring you have all the necessary information from start to finish. To streamline this process, we’ve implemented a single point of contact (SPOC) system, allowing both current and prospective clients in the St. Louis area to quickly reach the appropriate team without waiting in a call center queue or leaving messages.

When placing a new order, you can contact the SPOC to speak directly with our team, who will walk you through all available delivery options. For ongoing shipments, the same SPOC connects you with the coordinators overseeing your delivery, providing real-time updates so you can plan your operations with confidence and stay on track with your schedule.

Concierge-Level Customer Service

At HotShotTrucking.com, we keep our customers informed by leveraging cutting-edge tracking and monitoring technology for all our affiliated trucks. This allows us to respond quickly to any disruptions—whether caused by traffic, weather, or roadwork—by identifying alternative routes and promptly redirecting drivers to keep shipments on schedule.

As part of our concierge service, we offer the option to involve you in the process. If a disruption arises, we’ll provide you with alternative routes, outline the benefits and drawbacks of each, and give you the opportunity to choose the best option for your shipment. We apply the same collaborative approach when you place your order, walking you through all available options and allowing you to make the final decision. No matter what you’re shipping or where it’s headed in Missouri, you’ll always have control over the process!

St. Louis Hot Shot Deliveries

HotShotTrucking.com keeps vehicles and personnel in key locations throughout the US, Mexico, and Canada. The moment you place an order, we’ll identify the location closest to your starting point, send a truck from there to pick up your goods, and head straight to Missouri. The result is that regardless of how large and complex your shipping network is, you can count on us to resolve any emergencies without skipping a beat.

Many companies assume that if they order emergency shipping, they’ll have to share truck space with other clients who suffer logistical issues in similar locations. But with HotShotTrucking.com, you’ll have a truck dedicated to you, which delivers your goods and no one else’s. Among the benefits of this arrangement are that you don’t have to worry about detours— rather than delivering somewhere else first, we’ll head directly to your destination.

In addition to dedicating a truck to you, we dedicate two drivers to that truck whenever it has to cross long distances. These drivers switch between rest and work, keeping the truck on the road through the night.

Whether on the ground or in the air, we track all of our shipments using the latest equipment. This lets us make sure each truck is on time and guide the driver around any obstacles. It also means that whenever you’re wondering the location of your shipment or when it will arrive, all you have to do is call and ask.

Sprinter Vans

Emergency shipments typically involve smaller, lightweight items that may not take up much space but are critical to keeping production on track. Sprinter vans are often the ideal solution for these types of orders. They are cost-effective, fuel-efficient, and nimble enough to navigate busy roads and tight spaces.

To fulfill this need, HotShotTrucking.com has integrated a network of affiliated sprinter vans throughout Missouri, including St. Louis. When you place a smaller order, we’ll quickly identify a nearby sprinter van that meets your shipment’s size and requirements. If your cargo requires special features, such as refrigeration or freezer capabilities, we’ll ensure the van is equipped to handle your specific needs.

Straight Trucks

Straight or box trucks offer the perfect balance for expedited freight, providing more capacity than a sprinter van while remaining more compact and maneuverable than a full-size dry van. For our customers in Missouri, this middle ground often delivers the best of both worlds. At HotShotTrucking.com, we specialize in coordinating shipments with straight trucks, maximizing their extra space while carefully planning routes to avoid traffic and ensure smooth, on-time deliveries.

Many of our straight trucks come equipped with refrigeration or freezer capabilities, making them ideal for transporting agricultural products and other perishable goods. No matter how busy the roads are, you can count on us to handle your straight-truck delivery with efficiency and speed.

53ft Dry Vans

St. Louis-based businesses with large shipping needs can rely on our affiliated 53-foot dry vans. Even with vehicles of this size, HotShotTrucking.com maintains its full truckload strategy by selecting a dry van with cargo space precisely suited to your order’s volume and weight. We apply the same expertise in route planning and attentive route management that we use for smaller vehicles, like sprinter vans or straight trucks.

Our trusted affiliated driver will bring the dry van to your supply point, load your items, and immediately set off toward your destination. Throughout transit, we monitor the van using advanced tracking equipment to avoid traffic delays and ensure your delivery meets your schedule.

Sprinter Vans

When speed counts but you don’t want to break the cost barrier, cargo sprinter vans are an excellent option for your expedited freight. We provide a broad selection of sprinter vans to support both local and long-distance ground shipping needs.

Large Straight Trucks
